Pros

Development opportunities, both personal and professional, are very good Solid work experience translates into strong resume, recognized globally Healthy competitive spirit within organization equates to high company performance Most employees live the (trite but true) mantra of "work hard, play hard"

Cons

For those looking for intrinsic reward, selling consumer goods can sometimes leave a void Like any large corporation, politics often plays a role when it comes to advancement (less so, though, as the years have gone by) Work-life balance can be a struggle to achieve
